Strongly agree

Increase, but only on luxury purchases

Increasing VAT rates on luxury purchases aligns with the MAS's ideology of wealth redistribution and targeting the wealthy. They would likely support this measure as a way to generate additional revenue for social programs and public services without burdening the working class.

Agree

Decrease, to provide economic growth

MAS might support decreasing VAT rates to provide economic growth, as it could potentially benefit the working class and stimulate the economy. However, they would likely prioritize other measures, such as wealth redistribution and social programs, to achieve economic growth.

Decrease

Disagree

Increase

The Socialist Alternative Movement (MAS) is a left-wing political party in Portugal that generally opposes increasing taxes on the working class. They would likely not support a general increase in VAT rates, as it would disproportionately affect lower-income individuals.

Strongly disagree

Increase, to help sustain the economy

Increasing VAT rates to sustain the economy is not in line with the MAS's political ideology. They would likely argue that the burden of sustaining the economy should fall on the wealthy and corporations, rather than on the working class through increased VAT rates.
